ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT
------------------------
The Parties agree as follows:
RECITALS:
---------
Capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meanings set forth in
the attached Schedule A.
Purchaser and Parent desire that Purchaser purchase from Seller, and
Seller desires to sell to Purchaser, substantially all of the assets used by
Seller exclusively in the Acquired Business, and Purchaser agrees to assume
certain identified liabilities of Seller in connection with the Acquired
Business, in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
this Agreement.
As an inducement to Seller to enter into this Agreement, Parent has
agreed to guarantee all obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement, whether
currently existing or hereafter arising, pursuant to the Parent Guaranty.
1. ACQUIRED ASSETS. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
Purchaser shall purchase from Seller, and Seller shall sell, assign and
deliver to Purchaser, in each case effective as of the Effective Time, all
right, title and interest in, to and under the Acquired Assets, free and
clear of any Lien except the Permitted Encumbrances.
2. EXCLUDED ASSETS. Purchaser will not acquire any of Seller's right, title or
interest in, to or under any of the Excluded Assets.
3. ASSUMED LIABILITIES. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
Purchaser shall assume the Assumed Liabilities effective as of the
Effective Time, and Purchaser shall thereafter perform and discharge the
Assumed Liabilities.
4. EXCLUDED LIABILITIES. Purchaser will not assume or become liable for all or
any portion of any of the Excluded Liabilities.
5. CONSIDERATION AND DELIVERY. The consideration for the Acquired Assets will
be (a) assumption of the Assumed Liabilities by Purchaser, plus (b) payment
by Purchaser of the Purchase Price.
5.1 PURCHASE PRICE.
(a) At Closing, Purchaser will pay the Purchase Price to Seller by
payment of the Cash Payment by wire transfer of immediately
available funds.
(b) The Purchase Price will be subject to adjustment as described
on this Section 5.1(b).
(i) Within ninety (90) days after the Effective Time, Seller
will deliver to Purchaser the Closing Working Capital
Statement. Purchaser will have forty-five (45) days from
receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement to
object to the Closing Working Capital Statement by
written notice to Seller. If Seller does not receive
notice of an objection within such time, the Closing
Working Capital Statement prepared by Seller will be
final and binding on the parties. If Purchaser timely
notifies Seller of an objection, the Parties will have
thirty (30) days from the date of Purchaser's notice to
resolve the objection. If the Parties do not resolve the
objection within such time, either Seller or Purchaser
may submit the dispute to the Independent Auditors for
resolution, and such resolution will be final and
binding on the Parties. The fees and expenses of the
Independent Auditors will
1
5
be borne by Seller and Purchaser in proportion to the
respective differences between their positions submitted
to the Independent Auditors and the final determination
of the Independent Auditors.
(ii) The Purchase Price will be reduced if the Net Working
Capital on the Closing Working Capital Statement is less
than the Net Working Capital on the Adjusted 6/30/98
Working Capital Statement (as shown in Exhibit 1). If
the deficiency is less than the Collar Amount, there
shall be no reduction. If the deficiency is greater than
the Collar Amount, the actual amount of the reduction
shall be the amount of the deficiency less the Collar
Amount.
(iii) The Purchase Price will be increased if the Net Working
Capital on the Closing Working Capital Statement is
greater than the Net Working Capital on the Adjusted
6/30/98 Working Capital Statement (as shown in Exhibit
1). If the excess is less than the Collar Amount, there
shall be no increase. If the excess is greater than the
Collar Amount, the actual amount of the increase shall
be the amount of the excess less the Collar Amount.
(iv) If there is a Purchase Price Adjustment, within ten (10)
days after final determination of the adjustment
(whether by Purchaser's failure to object, agreement of
the Parties or determination by the Independent
Auditors), Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, will pay
the applicable amount by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account(s) designated by Seller
or Purchaser, as applicable.
5.2 SALES OR TRANSFER TAXES. Purchaser will pay all sales or transfer
taxes, recording fees and similar fees, charges or assessments arising
out of the transfer of the Acquired Assets pursuant to this Agreement
(Seller shall remain liable for any income or franchise taxes payable
by Seller as a result of such transfer). Seller will timely file all
returns for Taxes described in this Section 5.2.
5.3 ALLOCATION. Within a reasonable time after the Closing Working Capital
Statement has been finally determined pursuant to Section 5.1(b), the
Parties shall execute the Allocation Agreement (including appropriate
adjustments to Exhibit A thereto; the Parties acknowledge that the form
of Exhibit A to the Allocation Agreement attached at Closing is based
on the Adjusted 6/30/98 Balance Sheet). The obligations of the Parties
under that agreement are incorporated in this Agreement as if written

applicable to Purchaser, where the consequences of any of the events in
clauses (a) - (e), inclusive are likely to result in a Parent Material
Adverse Change. The execution and consummation by Parent of the Parent
Agreements will not (a) violate the terms of Parent's Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws or any instrument, agreement, judgment or
decree to which Parent is a party, or by which Parent or any of its
properties is bound, (b) be in conflict with, result in a breach of or

State of Delaware. Parent has full power and authority to execute and
consummate the Purchaser Agreements.
8.4 FINANCING. Attached as Exhibit 15 is a true and correct copy of the

other financing). Purchaser and Parent have received all written
consents and approvals required of Purchaser's or Parent's
10
14
lenders as a condition to execution or performance of the Purchaser
Agreements or the Parent Agreements (including a commitment by all
parties to the Subordination Agreement other than Seller to execute and
deliver the Subordination Agreement at Closing) and Purchaser has
delivered a correct and complete copy of all such consents and approval
to Seller.
8.5 NO BREACH BY SELLER. To Purchaser's Knowledge, as of the date of this
Agreement, Seller has not breached any of its representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement. Seller
acknowledges that any breach of the representation in the preceding

8.6 BROKERS. Except for X.X.Xxxxx Securities Corporation, no broker or

8.7 PARENT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS; ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES AND EVENTS. The
Parent Financial Statements: (i) were prepared in accordance with GAAP,
consistently applied; and (ii) present, in all material respects, the
financial condition of Parent as of the respective dates thereof and
the results of operations of Parent's business for the applicable
periods; provided, however, that interim financial statements are
subject to normal year-end adjustments and do not contain footnotes and
other presentation items. Since January 1, 1998 and except for (a)
execution of the Purchaser Agreements and the Parent Agreements and
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchaser
Agreements and the Parent Agreements and (b) matters that have been
disclosed in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K, no Parent Material Adverse Change has
occurred. Neither Purchaser nor Parent is currently in default under,
nor has an event occurred which with notice, passage of time or both
would constitute a default under, any material liability of Purchaser
or Parent. No event has occurred which, with the passage of time, would
constitute an Acceleration Event (as that term is defined in the Parent
Note). Except for those liabilities of Parent identified in the Parent
Financial Statements or otherwise disclosed in a filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K,
and those liabilities incurred by Parent in the Ordinary Course of
Business since January 1, 1998, Parent does not have any material
liabilities, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise. None

Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 1997
incorporated by reference therein), Forms 10-QSB dated May 15, 1998 and
August 14, 1998, Forms 8-K and 8-K/A dated April 8, 1998, April 24,

is a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Except for the Purchaser
Agreements, Purchaser is not a party to nor are any of Purchaser's
assets bound by any agreement, Order, instrument, judgment or decree.
Except for the liabilities and obligations of Purchaser under the
Purchaser Agreements, Purchaser does not have any liability or
obligation.
9. COVENANTS. The Parties covenant and agree as follows:
9.1 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS PRIOR TO CLOSING. Until the Closing, and unless
Purchaser otherwise consents in writing, Seller will operate the
Acquired Business substantially as previously operated and only in the
Ordinary Course of Business.
9.2 SELLER MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGES. Seller will not without the prior
consent of Purchaser take any affirmative action, or fail to take any
reasonable action within its control, the consequences of which are
likely to have a Seller Material Adverse Effect.

Agreement, Seller will deal exclusively and in good faith with
Purchaser and Parent regarding a Sale Transaction, and Seller will not
(and Seller will direct Seller's officers, directors, financial
advisors, accountants, agents and
11
15
counsel not to): (a) solicit submission of offers from any person
relating to a Sale Transaction; (b) participate in any discussions or
negotiations regarding, or furnish any nonpublic information to any
person regarding any Sale Transaction by any person other than
Purchaser and Parent; or (c) enter into any agreement or understanding,
whether oral or written, that would have the effect of preventing
consummation of this Agreement. If Seller or its representatives or
agents should receive any proposal for a Sale Transaction or any
inquiry regarding such proposal from a third party, Seller will
promptly so inform Purchaser.
9.4 CONSENTS, WAIVERS AND APPROVALS. Seller, Purchaser and Parent will each
use best efforts to obtain prior to the Closing (a) the Lessor
Documents from each lessor of any Acquired Business Leased Real
Property and (b) all other material consents, waivers, approvals, and
releases, and to make prior to the Closing all material filings
(including Governmental Authorizations and filings with Governmental
Bodies), in each case as necessary to effect the transactions
contemplated hereby (provided, that Seller shall not be obligated to
obtain any consents, waiver, approvals or releases from Customers).
Seller, Purchaser and Parent will each use best efforts to cause NEC to
enter into an agreement with Purchaser and Parent to continue
Purchaser's right to use certain equipment at Seller's San Diego
facility on substantially the same terms ad conditions as currently in
effect. All such consents, waivers, releases, approvals and filings
will be in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the other Party.
9.5 SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE.
(a) Seller will have the continuing obligation up to and including
the Closing Date to supplement or amend the Disclosure
Schedule with respect to any material matter subsequently
arising or discovered which, if existing or known at the date
of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or
listed in the Disclosure Schedule. Any such supplemental
disclosure will be deemed to have been disclosed as of the
date of this Agreement if Purchaser and Parent proceed with
and ultimately consummate the Closing following receipt of
such supplemental disclosure.
(b) Prior to Closing, Seller shall confirm the accuracy of its
representation and warranties under Section 6.12(f) by

event such interviews reveal any matter which, if existing or
known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required
to be set forth or listed in the Disclosure Schedule in
response to Section 6.12(f), Seller will notify Purchaser of
the same. Purchaser and Parent acknowledge and agree that no
information contained in any such supplemental disclosure
shall be deemed to constitute a breach of Section 6.12(f)
unless, in the aggregate, the matters listed in such
supplemental disclosure are likely to result in Seller
Material Adverse Effect.
(c) Purchaser and Parent will have the continuing obligation up to
and including the Closing Date to disclose to Seller in
writing any matter coming to Purchaser's Knowledge after the
date of this Agreement that constitutes a breach by Seller of
any of its representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements set forth in this Agreement (any such matter will
be deemed to have been within Purchaser's Knowledge as of the
date of this Agreement if Purchaser and Parent proceed with
and ultimately consummate the Closing after such matter comes
to Purchaser's Knowledge).
(d) Purchaser and Parent will have the continuing obligation up to
and including the Closing Date to supplement or amend the
Parent Disclosure Schedule with respect to any material matter
subsequently arising or discovered which, if existing or known
at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be
set forth or listed in the Parent Disclosure Schedule. Any

disclosed as of the date of this Agreement if Seller proceeds

of such supplemental disclosure.

of Seller; (b) that such examinations will take place in a manner
reasonably acceptable to Seller and its counsel; (c) that neither
Purchaser nor Parent shall contact any customers or suppliers of the
Acquired Business in connection with Purchaser's and Parent's due

approval will not be unreasonably withheld); and (d) that all
information supplied to Purchaser and Parent or their representatives
in the course of such investigations will be subject to the
Non-disclosure Agreement between Parent and Seller dated July 21, 1998.
9.8 CERTAIN ACTIONS. Each of the Parties will refrain from taking any
action which would render any representation or warranty contained in
Sections 6 or 8 of this Agreement inaccurate as of the Closing Date.
Each Party will promptly notify the other of any action or proceeding
that is instituted or threatened against such Party to restrain,
prohibit or otherwise challenge the legality of any transaction
contemplated by this Agreement.

follow the same procedures to determine the amount of the Personal

rightfully terminated by Purchaser pursuant to Section 15.1(a) due to
a material breach by Seller or pursuant to Section 15.1(b), then
Seller shall bear the Auditors' Report Expenses. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Purchaser and Parent shall
bear all amounts payable to X.X. Xxxxx Securities Corporation and
FINOVA Capital Corporation in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.
9.11 CERTAIN CONSENTS. In the event any of the Contracts (except for the
leases for the Acquired Business Leased Real Property) requires
consent to assignment and such consent is not obtained prior to the
Closing, then until such consent has been obtained or the applicable
Contract terminates, the Contract shall not be deemed assigned to
Purchaser but instead Purchaser shall be deemed to be Seller's
subcontractor or the Parties shall make such other arrangements as
necessary to assure Purchaser the benefits of the underlying Contract.
In that event, Purchaser shall perform all obligations of Seller under
the applicable Contract and shall be entitled to all benefits from

shall be used for any purpose in connection with this Agreement or the
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of either Party
under this Agreement, including the preparation of the Closing Net

remedies to cause the consummation of the transactions set forth
in this Agreement, including, without limitation, an action or
suit for specific performance.
13. ACQUIRED BUSINESS EMPLOYEES.
13.1 TERMINATIONS. No later than October 12, 1998, Purchaser shall
identify in writing to Seller those Acquired Business Employees to
whom Purchaser intends to offer employment (as determined by
Purchaser in its sole discretion). At the Effective Time (or, in
the event of an Escrowed Closing, at the Closing Escrow
Termination Date), Seller will terminate all of the Acquired
Business Effective Time Employees and Purchaser will offer
employment (and will hire all persons who accept such offer of
employment) to the Acquired Business Effective Time Employees
identified in Purchaser's notice contemplated by the preceding
sentence (on such terms and conditions as Purchaser may determine
in its sole discretion). Seller makes no representation or
warranty and provides no assurance that any Acquired Business
Employee will remain employed by Seller until the Effective Time
(or, in the event of an Escrowed Closing, the Closing Escrow
Termination Date) or that any such person will accept an offer of
employment from Purchaser.
13.2 REIMBURSEMENT OF EXCESS TERMINATION-RELATED AMOUNTS. Seller shall
pay to applicable Acquired Business Employees all
Termination-related Amounts. In the event that the number of
Acquired Business Effective Time Employees to whom (a) Purchaser
does not extend an offer of employment effective as of the
Effective Time, or (b) Purchaser does extend an offer of
employment effective as of the Effective Time but the terms and
conditions of employment (including duties, responsibilities and
location) are such that even if the Acquired Business Effective
Time Employee accepts the offer, the Acquired Business Effective
Time Employee will be entitled to severance under Seller's
standard severance policy or any compensation or benefits under
the WARN Act, exceeds 225, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for
all Termination-related Amounts paid by Seller to the excess
Acquired Business Effective Time Employees and the applicable
Taxes payable by Seller with respect to such Termination-related
Amounts. The Parties agree that for purposes of determining the
amount of any reimbursement to Seller under this Section 13.2, the
Parties shall determine an average amount payable to or in respect
of each applicable employee and Purchaser shall be responsible for
an amount equal to the per employee average, multiplied by the
number of employees in excess of 225. Amounts payable by Purchaser
under this Section 13.2 shall be paid to Seller within thirty (30)
days after receipt of each request therefor accompanied by
reasonably sufficient supporting material to verify the amount.
13.3 WITHHOLDING. Purchaser and Seller agree to adopt the alternative
procedure described in Section 5 of Revenue Procedure 96-60 as
promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to wage
reporting, F.I.C.A., withholding and similar Taxes applicable to
the Acquired Business Employees who become employees of Purchaser.

14. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. All representations and
warranties made by Seller or Purchaser and Parent in this Agreement will
survive until the 18-month anniversary of the Effective Time, except that
(a) to the extent any representations or warranties relate to Taxes, such
representations and warranties shall be deemed to survive for the period of
the applicable statute of limitations, (b) the representations and
warranties described in clause (a) of Section 7.3 shall not survive the
Closing, (c) the representations and warranties in Section 6.14 (other than
Section 6.14 (f)) and the representations and warranties under Section 8.5
shall survive until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Time, and
(d) the representations and warranties in Sections 6.1, 6.13, and 8.1 shall
survive indefinitely. No claim for breach of a representation or warranty
(including an Indemnification Claim) may be brought by any person unless
written notice of such claim is given on or prior to the last day of the
applicable survival period in this Section 14 (in which event each
representation and warranty with respect to any asserted claim will survive
until such claim is finally resolved and all obligations with respect
thereto are fully satisfied).
15. TERMINATION.
15.1 GROUNDS. This Agreement may, by notice given on or prior to the
earlier of the Termination Date or the Closing Date, be terminated: (a)
by either Seller or Purchaser if a material breach of any provision of
this Agreement has been committed by the other Party and such breach
has not been cured by the earlier of the Termination Date or ten (10)
days after receipt by the breaching Party of written notice from the
non-breaching Party describing the breach and such breach has not been
waived by the non-breaching Party; (b) by Purchaser if any of the
conditions in Section 10 has not been satisfied as of the Termination
Date or if satisfaction of such a condition is or becomes impossible
(other than through the failure of Purchaser to comply with its
obligations under this Agreement) and Purchaser has not waived such
condition on or before the Termination Date; (c) by Seller, if any of
the conditions in Section 11 has not been satisfied of the Termination
Date or if satisfaction of such a condition is or becomes impossible
(other than through the failure of Seller to comply with its
obligations under this Agreement) and Seller has not waived such
condition on or before the Termination Date; (d) by mutual consent of
Purchaser and Seller; or (e) by either Purchaser or Seller if the
Closing has not occurred (other than through the failure of any Party
seeking to terminate this Agreement to comply fully with its
obligations under this Agreement) on or before the Termination Date or
such later date as the Parties may agree upon.
15.2 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Each Party's right of termination under Section
15.1 is in addition to any other rights it may have under this
Agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination will
not be an election of remedies. If this Agreement is terminated
pursuant to Section 15.1, all further obligations of the Parties under
this Agreement will terminate, except that the obligations in Section
9.10 will survive; provided, however, that if this Agreement is
terminated by a Party because of the breach of the Agreement by the
other Party or because one or more of the conditions to the terminating
Party's obligations under this Agreement is not satisfied as a result
of the other Party's failure to comply with its obligations under this
Agreement, the terminating Party's right to pursue all legal remedies
will survive such termination unimpaired.
16. INDEMNIFICATION.
16.1 LOSSES. For purposes of Sections 16 and 17 of this Agreement, "LOSSES"
will mean all damages, losses, costs, expenses (including legal,
accounting, investigation and other fees and expenses), interest,
penalties, charges and liabilities.
16.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY SELLER. Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold
harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Persons from and against any Loss
incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Persons related to or arising
out of (a) the breach of any of the warranties, representations,
covenants or
19
23
agreements of Seller in this Agreement, (b) any Excluded Liability or
Excluded Asset, (c) Seller's use of the R/2000 and ProMed Marks prior
to the Effective Time, or (d) any claim by Synergex with regard to
Seller's use or distribution of Synergex' products on or before the
Effective Time.
16.3 INDEMNIFICATION BY PURCHASER. Purchaser and Parent jointly and
severally agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller
Indemnified Persons from and against any Loss incurred by the Seller
Indemnified Persons related to or arising out of (a) the breach of any
of the warranties, representations, covenants or agreements of
Purchaser and/or Parent in this Agreement, or (b) any Acquired Asset
or Assumed Liability (except to the extent that Seller is obligated to
indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Persons under Section 16.2 with
respect to the applicable event, circumstance, action or omission that
generates the Loss).
16.4 PROCEDURES FOR INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) An Indemnification Claim will be made by Indemnitee by
delivery of a written declaration to Indemnitor requesting
indemnification and specifying the basis on which
indemnification is sought and the amount of asserted Losses
and, in the case of a Third Party Claim, containing such other
information as Indemnitee will have concerning such Third
Party Claim.
(b) If the Indemnification Claim involves a Third Party Claim the
procedures set forth in Section 16.5 hereof will be observed
by Indemnitee and Indemnitor.
(c) If the Indemnification Claim involves a matter other than a
Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor will have ten (10) days to
object to such Indemnification Claim by delivery of a written
notice of such objection to Indemnitee specifying in
reasonable detail the basis for such objection. Failure to
timely so object will constitute acceptance of the
Indemnification Claim by the Indemnitor and the
Indemnification Claim will be paid in accordance with Section
16.4(d). If any objection is timely interposed by the
Indemnitor and the dispute is not resolved within fifteen (15)
days from the date Indemnitee receives such objection, such
dispute will be resolved as provided in Section 18.12 of this
Agreement.
(d) Upon determination of the amount of an Indemnification Claim
(including a Third Party Claim), whether by agreement between
Indemnitor and Indemnitee, by an arbitration award or
otherwise, Indemnitor will pay the amount of such
Indemnification Claim within ten (10) days of the date such
amount is determined.
16.5 DEFENSE OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.
(a) Should any Third Party Claim be made the obligations and
liabilities of the parties with respect to such Third Party
Claim will be subject to this Section 16.5.
(b) Within a reasonable time (i.e., such time as will not
prejudice the contest, defense, litigation, or settlement of a
Third Party Claim) following the receipt of notice of a Third
Party Claim, the party receiving the notice of the Third Party
Claim will (i) notify the other party of its existence setting
forth in writing and with reasonable specificity the facts and
circumstances of which such party has received notice, and
(ii) if the party giving such notice is an Indemnitee, specify
in writing the basis hereunder upon which the Indemnitee's
claim for indemnification is asserted and tendering defense of
the Third Party Claim to Indemnitor.
(c) If the defense of a Third Party Claim is so tendered and
within ten (10) days thereafter such tender is accepted
without qualification by the Indemnitor as evidenced by
written notice to Indemnitee, then, except as provided below,
the Indemnitee will not, and the Indemnitor will,
20
24
have the right to contest, defend, litigate and settle such
Third Party Claim. The Indemnitee will have the right to be
represented by counsel of its own choice and at Indemnitee's
expense to participate in any contest, defense, litigation or
settlement conducted by the Indemnitor; provided that the
Indemnitee will be entitled to reimbursement therefor if the
Indemnitor loses its right to contest, defend, litigate and
settle the Third Party Claim as provided below.
Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 16.5,
if the Third Party Claim is asserted against both a Purchaser
Indemnified Person and a Seller Indemnified Person, and
representation of both of them by the same counsel would be
inappropriate due to actual or potentially differing interests
between them, Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain the right
to contest, defend or litigate such Third Party Claim as it
relates to Indemnitee and will have the exclusive right, in
its discretion exercised in good faith, and with the advice of
counsel, to settle any such matter, either before or after the
initiation of litigation, at such time and upon such terms as
it deems fair and reasonable, provided that at least ten (10)
days prior to any such settlement, written notice of its
intention to settle will be given to the Indemnitor. If,
pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Indemnitee so
contests, defends, litigates or settles a Third Party Claim,
the Indemnitee will be reimbursed by the Indemnitor for the
reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses of defending,
contesting, litigating and/or settling the Third Party Claim
which are incurred from time to time, promptly following the
presentation to the Indemnitor of itemized bills for such
attorneys' fees and other expenses.
(d) The Indemnitor will lose its right to contest, defend,
litigate and settle the Third Party Claim if it fails to
diligently contest the Third Party Claim (except in connection
with a settlement thereof in accordance with the terms
hereof). So long as the Indemnitor has not lost its right to
defend, contest, litigate and settle as herein provided, the
Indemnitor will have the exclusive right to contest, defend
and litigate the Third Party Claim and will have the exclusive
right, in its discretion exercised in good faith, and with the
advice of counsel, to settle any such matter, either before or
after the initiation of litigation, at such time and upon such
terms as it deems fair and reasonable, provided that at least
ten (10) days prior to any such settlement, written notice of
its intention to settle will be given to the Indemnitee and
the settlement includes an unconditional release of the
Indemnitee.
(e) All expenses (including without limitation attorneys' fees and
expenses) incurred by the Indemnitor in connection with the
foregoing will be paid by the Indemnitor.
(f) No failure by an Indemnitor to acknowledge in writing its
indemnification obligations under this Section 16 will relieve
it of such obligations to the extent they exist. If an
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification against a Third
Party Claim, and the Indemnitor fails to accept or assume the
defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 16.5(c), or
if, in accordance with the foregoing, the Indemnitor loses its
right to contest, defend, litigate and settle such a Third
Party Claim, the Indemnitee will have the right, without
prejudice to its right of indemnification hereunder, in its
discretion exercised in good faith, to contest, defend and
litigate such Third Party Claim, and may, in its discretion
exercised in good faith, and with the advice of counsel,
settle such Third Party Claim, either before or after the
initiation of litigation, at such time and upon such terms as
it deems fair and reasonable, provided that at least ten (10)
days prior to any such settlement, written notice of its
intention to settle is given to the Indemnitor. If, pursuant
to this Section 16.5(f), the Indemnitee so contests, defends,
litigates or settles a Third Party Claim for which it is
entitled to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitee will be
reimbursed by the Indemnitor for the reasonable attorneys'
fees and other expenses of defending, contesting, litigating
and/or settling the Third Party Claim which are incurred from
time to time, promptly following the presentation to the
Indemnitor of itemized bills for such attorneys' fees and
other expenses.

(a) All notices of Loss must be delivered to the Indemnitor prior
to expiration of the applicable periods for the warranties and
representations as set forth in Section 16 hereof.

have any obligation until the aggregate of all Losses payable
by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee with respect to all
Indemnification Claims under this Section 16 exceeds the
Floor. Upon the aggregate of all Losses (except the Exempt
Indemnification Obligations) payable by an Indemnitor with
respect to Indemnification Claims under this Section 16

Indemnitor from the first dollar. The Parties acknowledge that
obligations to pay any Purchase Price Adjustment Amount, any
Personal Property Tax Reimbursement Amount, any amount
described in Section 5.2 or any reimbursement of
Termination-related Amounts as described in Section 13.2 are
not Indemnification Claims and are not subject to the Floor.
(d) The payment of any Loss hereunder will constitute an
additional adjustment to the Purchase Price under Section 5.
(e) Except for the equitable remedies under the terms of Section
12.3, indemnification for Customer Claims under Section 17 and
matters that Purchaser or Parent establishes by clear and
convincing evidence amount to fraud under applicable law, the

Section 16.6) are the sole and exclusive remedies of Purchaser
with respect to claims arising out of: (i) the warranties,
representations, covenants and agreements of Seller in this
Agreement; (ii) any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability; or
(iii) any Acquired Asset or Assumed Liability. Except for the
equitable remedies under the terms of Section 12.3,
indemnification for Customer Claims under Section 17 and

evidence amount to fraud under applicable law, the remedies
provided in this Section 16 (as limited by this Section 16.6)

Agreement; (ii) any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability;
(iii) any Acquired Asset or Assumed Liability; or (iv) the
ownership or operation of the Acquired Business or the
Acquired Assets for any period ending after the Effective
Time. Except as permitted under applicable law as a remedy for
fraud proven by clear and convincing evidence, no Party shall
have the right of rescission of the transactions under this
Agreement.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, neither Seller nor Xxxxxxxx Holdings shall have any
liability under this Section 16 or otherwise (including under
or in connection with the Xxxxxxxx Holdings Transfer
Agreement), and neither Purchaser nor Parent shall be entitled
to recover against Seller or Xxxxxxxx Holdings, whether under
a claim for breach of contract, breach of warranty, strict
liability, tort, contribution or other theory of recovery with
respect to or arising out of (provided, however, that this
Section shall not apply to matters that Purchaser or Parent
establishes by clear and convincing evidence constitute fraud

of a warranty or covenant under this Agreement to the
extent that the existence of such falsity or breach upon
which liability would be based (A) is within Purchaser's
Knowledge at or prior to the execution of this Agreement
(as proven by clear and convincing evidence), or (B)
comes within Purchaser's Knowledge prior to the Closing
(as proven by clear and convincing evidence); provided,
however, that as to the foregoing clause (B), any such
falsity or breach so disclosed to Purchaser or Parent
after the execution and delivery of this Agreement but
prior to the Closing shall not affect the right of
Purchaser or Parent under the terms of Section 10 to
elect not to close the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement (it being understood that if, despite such
right of Purchaser and Parent to elect not to close
Purchaser and Parent nevertheless elects to close,
Purchaser and Parent shall thereafter have no claim
against Seller by reason of, in connection with or
arising from such falsity or breach);
(ii) any projections, estimates or budgets heretofore
delivered or made available to Purchaser regarding
future revenues, expenses or expenditures or results of
future operations of the Acquired Business;
(iii) any other information or documents provided to Purchaser
or Parent or their counsel, advisors or accountants with

Parent's rights and remedies under Sections 17 and 22);

warranties with respect to the RH Intellectual Property
Intangibles; provided that this Section 16.6(f)(x) shall
not limit in any respect Seller's liability and the
Purchaser Indemnified Persons' remedies under Section
16.2 for a breach of Section the representations or
warranties in Section 6.13 and Section 6.14 that
expressly pertain to Xxxxxxxx Holdings or the RH
Intellectual Property Intangibles);
23
27

or in connection with the Acquired Business: (A) to be
"millennium compliant", "year 2000 compliant", or "year
2000 qualified" or otherwise process, function, accept,

Seller or any other person as part of an integrated
system);
(xii) the falsity of or breach by Seller of any representation
or warranty in Section 6.14(f); or
(xiii) any Customer Claims (provided that this Section 16.6(f)
shall not in any manner limit, modify or otherwise
affect Purchaser's and Parent's rights and remedies
under Section 17).
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, neither Purchaser nor Parent shall have any
liability under this Section 16 or otherwise, and neither
Seller nor Xxxxxxxx Holdings shall be entitled to recover
against Purchaser or Parent, whether under a claim for breach

by clear and convincing evidence constitute fraud under
applicable law) any falsity or breach of a representation or
the breach of a warranty or covenant under this Agreement to
the extent that the existence of such falsity or breach upon
which liability would be based (i) is within Seller's
Knowledge at or prior to the Closing, or (ii) is disclosed in
a written notice furnished to Seller prior to the Closing;
provided, however, that as to the foregoing clause ii), any
such falsity or breach so disclosed to Seller after the
execution and delivery of this Agreement but prior to the
Closing shall not affect the right of Seller under the terms
of Section 11 to elect not to close the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (it being understood that if,
despite such right of Seller to elect not to close Seller
nevertheless elects to close, Seller shall thereafter have no
claim against Purchaser and Parent by reason of, in connection
with or arising from such falsity or breach).
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in
determining the amount of any "Loss" suffered by a Party: (i)
no Party shall be entitled to recover under this Section 16

(j) In the event that, after taking into account the limitations
in this Section 16.6 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller
nevertheless becomes obligated to pay Losses to a Purchaser
Indemnified Person, in no event shall the aggregate amount of
such liability of Seller (including any and all liabilities of
Seller for costs, expenses and attorney's fees paid or
incurred in connection therewith or in connection with curing
of any and all breaches of Seller's representations,
warranties, covenants or agreement) exceed the Cap; provided
that the Cap shall not apply to matters that the Purchaser
Indemnified Person establishes by clear and convincing
evidence amount to fraud under applicable law or to Exempt
Indemnification Obligations. In the event that, after taking
into account the limitations in this Section 16.6 or elsewhere
in this Agreement, Purchaser and/or Parent nevertheless
becomes obligated to pay Losses to Seller, in no event shall
the aggregate amount of such liability of Purchaser
24
28
and Parent (including any and all liabilities of Purchaser and
Parent for costs, expenses and attorney's fees paid or
incurred in connection therewith or in connection with curing
of any and all breaches of Purchaser's representations,
warranties, covenants or agreement) exceed the Cap; provided

Purchaser and Parent shall bear all Customer Claims Losses in
excess of $4,500,000 in the aggregate. Notwithstanding anything to

17.2 DEFINITIONS. "Customer Claims Losses" means all Losses arising out
of or related to Customer Claims. "Customer Claims" means either
(a) any claims, demands, actions, causes of action or Proceedings
asserted or threatened to be asserted by, on behalf of or with
respect to any person that is a customer of the Acquired Business
as of the Effective Time (an "Acquired Business Customer"),
regardless of whether such claim is asserted under any breach of
contract, breach of warranty, products liability, strict liability
or other theory, with respect to or arising out of any agreement,
contract, commitment, liability or obligation to the Acquired
Business Customer as of the Effective Time, including without
limitation (i) claims with respect to any hardware, software,
databases or services sold, leased, licensed or otherwise provided
to the Acquired Business Customer prior to the Effective Time,

the cost to cause any of the services or software or hardware
referenced in clause (a) to become "millennium compliant", "year
2000 compliant", or "year 2000 qualified" .
17.3 PROCEDURES. Purchaser shall assume responsibility for the defense

however that as a condition to any settlement, regardless of the
amount of Customer Claims described in clause (a) of Section 17.2,
Purchaser shall secure from the Acquired Business Customer a
unconditional release of Seller from any past or future liability.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement,
the Floor will not apply to the obligations of the Parties under
this Section. Purchaser shall provide Seller a monthly report of
all Customer Claims Losses. All such reports shall become final
and binding on the Parties unless Seller objects in writing within
30 days after receipt of the report. To the extent that Seller
becomes obligated
25

to pay any amounts under this Section, Seller's payment shall be
effected first through a reduction of the Principal Sum (as
defined in the Parent Note) in accordance with the Parent Note,
with any remainder paid by Seller by wire transfer within thirty
(30) days after the applicable report becomes final (whether by

under Section 18.12).

signed by each party and delivered to the other party hereto.
18.6 INTEGRATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement supersedes all prior
agreements, oral and written, between the parties hereto with respect
to the subject matter hereunder, including the Letter of Intent;
provided, however, that if the Closing does not occur for any reason,
the Non-disclosure Agreement between the Parties dated July 21, 1998
shall survive according to its terms. Neither this Agreement, nor any
provision hereof, may be changed, waived, discharged, supplemented or
terminated orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the
party against which the enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge
or termination is sought.
18.7 TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in this Agreement.

30
18.8 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement will be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the state of Ohio as applied

within that state.
18.9 DISCLOSURE. Purchaser, Parent and Seller each agree not to issue any
press release or make any public announcement or other disclosure to
competitors, customers, employees or any other person (except to
employees and agents on a need-to-know basis in order to complete the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and who agree to maintain
the confidentiality of the disclosed information) concerning this
Agreement except as required by law or with the advance written
approval of the other Parties, which approval will not be unreasonably
withheld.
18.10 PARTIAL ILLEGALITY OR UNENFORCEABILITY. Wherever possible, each
provision hereof will be interpreted in such manner as to be
effective under applicable law, but in case any one or more of the
provisions contained herein will, for any reason, be held to be
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such illegality or
unenforceability will not affect any other provisions of this
Agreement, and this Agreement will be construed as if such illegal or
unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein
unless the deletion of such provision or provisions would result in
such a material change as to cause completion of the transactions
contemplated hereby to be unreasonable.
18.11 SINGULAR OR PLURAL. All defined terms used herein will have the same
meaning, whether used in the singular or plural form, unless the
context clearly requires otherwise.
18.12 ARBITRATION.
(a) Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or relating
to this Agreement or the Xxxxxxxx Holdings Transfer Agreement
(except in connection with the determination of a Purchase
Price Adjustment Amount or a Personal Property Tax
Reimbursement Amount or enforcement of the Parent Note or a
breach of Section 19) will be submitted to arbitration in
accordance with the commercial rules of the AAA, by which each
Party will be bound.
(b) If the Parties have not agreed during their negotiations on a
single arbitrator to whom the controversy, dispute or claim
will be submitted, either Party may select an arbitrator and
send written notice to the other party of the selection. The
Party receiving such notice will have 10 days from the date
such Party receives such notice of such selection to select a
second arbitrator and send notice of such to the party who
selected the first arbitrator. Failure to select the second
arbitrator and to send timely notice, as provided above,
empowers the arbitrator first selected to resolve the
controversy. If both arbitrators have been duly named, they
will as soon as is reasonably practicable (but within 30 days
from the date the latter of the two arbitrators is named) name
a third arbitrator who must not be from the Dayton, Ohio or
Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan areas and who will be the sole
arbitrator to hear and rule upon the dispute. The provisions
of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure which provide for
discovery will be applicable to any such arbitration. The
parties agree that such discovery must be completed within six
(6) months after the claim has been filed with the AAA and
service on the other party effected.
(c) Any arbitration proceedings will be conducted in Dayton, Ohio
unless the Parties otherwise agree.
(d) The Parties agree to be bound by the decision of the
arbitrator and the decision thereof to be entered into any
appropriate court or other jurisdiction. The prevailing Party
in the arbitration will be promptly reimbursed for its
reasonable costs and fees (including attorneys'
27
31
fees) incurred in connection with the arbitration and will not
be responsible for the costs of arbitration.
18.13 "PERSON." The term "person" will be broadly interpreted to include,
without limitation, any corporation, partnership, association,
limited liability company, other association, trust or individual.
18.14 "BEST EFFORTS." The use of the term "best efforts" herein will in no
event require any party to (a) expend funds which are not
commercially reasonable in relation to the transactions contemplated
hereby or (b) take, or cause to be taken, any action which would have
a material adverse effect with respect to it.
18.15 "INCLUDING." Whenever the term "including" is used in this Agreement,
it will mean "including, without limitation," (whether or not such
language is specifically set forth) and will not be deemed to limit
the range of possibilities of those items specifically enumerated.
18.16 NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer
any rights upon any person other than the Parties and their
respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns.
18.17 FURTHER ASSURANCES. From and after the Closing, the Parties shall,
without further consideration, execute and deliver promptly such
further assignments, endorsements and other documents, and to take
all such further actions, as either may from time to time reasonably
request with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, and the fulfillment of any condition precedent to the
obligations of either Party waived by that Party in order to
